7 points. This film shot in 1933 should be regarded as the originator of the monster movie. Even if I look at it again today, no matter the plot, characters, special effects and performances are horrible, it is very rare to be able to have such creativity at the time when resources are scarce. The classic gorilla climbing the Empire State Building has influenced generations. It seems that the 2005 version is indeed a bit too tribute. Almost all the bridge sections are just the renovation and enhancement of the original 70 years ago. It is a bit too ordinary for Peter Jackson's ability.

    3.5. Willis O'Brien. Subtext of white racism; components of capitalism, colonialism, sexual tension, highly metaphysical (director and adventurer, hunter, laborer (including heroine, boatman, King Kong), dreamer who brings back the spectacle, Directing the heroine's screaming performance-became the main behavior mode afterwards; consciously using King Kong's fascination with blonde women, the conclusion comes out and tells the conclusion: Beauty killed the beast; King Kong is shown in front of the stage-this time is not a movie, although He is regarded as the [unsuccessful] director who is always shooting monkeys and tigers), a series of big scene shows (King Kong vs. various huge creatures, King Kong makes a big noise in New York, and the Empire State Building is killed). The agility of the personality strengthening of the eyes and body movements, rarely see the monsters invading the human world. They can kill and destroy in cold blood, while clearly letting the audience perceive that they are pure (and not too cute) and not innocent (take off the girl). The main clothes), in the end, the heroine did not make an emotional response too deliberately.

    There are many loopholes, but to be honest, it was really awesome to have this imagination and technique at that time!
